Product submissions for the Consumer Choice Awards at the 2025 Fly Fishing Show are open to show exhibitors through December 15, announced Ben Furimsky, President and CEO. Voting by consumers on new products will be open from January 17 to March 17.

According to Furimsky, there are 41 categories of new fly fishing products in the 2025 competition with awards to be made jointly by the Fly Fishing Show, Fly Fusion Magazine, and Fly Fishing Journeys. Products will be available for public evaluation and open for voting during the seven nation-wide Fly Fishing Shows in Marlborough, Massachusetts.; Edison, NJ; Atlanta; Bellevue/Seattle; Denver; Pleasanton, California.; and Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

There were 239 product entries during the 2024 Fly Fishing Show. The Flyweight Access Wading Boots from Simms Fishing Products were named Best of Show. “Based on requests for show booth space by new exhibitors, we anticipate a 10 to 15% increase in Consumer Choice Award entries for the 2025 show season,” said Furimsky.

The awards celebrate the research and development that goes into bringing new products to market. Products are free for all exhibiting manufacturers to enter.
